Ingleside — Fire officials are investigating what caused a fire in a plastic trash can in a garage Tuesday morning. Reports said Jamie M. Mulford, 33, told Lake County sheriff's police that she was baby-sitting two children in her home in the 34500 block of West Polk Street, when she heard a smoke detector in the garage going off. Mulford took the two children and a cordless phone outside and called for help. Heavy smoke and flames were seen coming from the garage, reports said. The fire was extinguished by firefighters from Fox Lake and the Round Lake Area Fire Protection District.
